2 IMAGING ADJUSTMENT
Moiré Reduction
What is moiré?
Moiré refers to an interference pattern of dark wavy lines on the
screen. It is not a defect, but rather an interference phenomenon
caused by the relationship between the phosphor layout and the
imaging signal. Moiré is often an indication of a good focus level.
Moiré is particularly noticeable when using a light-gray or every-
other-dot pattern background. Although moiré can not be eliminated,
it can be reduced with the moiré reduction feature.
Moiré can be reduced in a variety of ways.
1) Adjust with the ScreenManagers moiré reduction function.
Adjust so that moiré becomes almost unnoticeable. Before adjusting,
set the desktop to an every-other-dot pattern (see picture) so that
moiré will be visible. Following the adjustment, change to a different
desktop background to reduce moiré even further.
2) Change the horizontal and vertical dimensions.
Adjust the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the display area as
necessary to reduce moiré.
3) Change the selected desktop or wallpaper pattern.
Use the PC software to change the desktop or wallpaper pattern. Any
solid color pattern is recommended. For detailed information on how
to change these patterns, refer to the documentation for the PC and
operating system.
The screen image may shake slightly while the ScreenManager
moiré reduction function is ON. Switching the function OFF will
improve image stability and clarity at the expense of slightly greater
moiré.
